ANGEL O' DEATH Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 As a band Femora have recently decided that we need a different type of vocalist. Crocker was ace for us but we feel as though we need someone different. It's never easy asking someone to leave a band but i'm sure he will be part of another one soon.to anyone who hasn't heard us our influences range throughBoySetsFire, 36 Crazyfists, In Flames, Killswitch Engage, Avenged Sevenfold etc.....looking for powerful melodic vocals (would be nice if u can scream also)If you think you would like to be the vocalist for Fem(~)racontact anyone from the bandme, sye, marty or the tankcheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Tank Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Did we say that he was a bad singer, no. We just want someone who fits in more with the style of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Marching Children Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 You had a charasmatic and distinctive lead singer who was a major part of the bands appeal and you've went and sacked him. What a great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stuartmaxwell Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 ive not heard femora yet, all ive heard is "stoner rock" which they deny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afro Droid Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 They're not stoner as I know it. They're certainly not bad, just not stoner. More technical metal/hardcore. Shame about Crocker, I thought his vocals were unexpectadly great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
less_than_stu Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Yeah, I have to agree. I saw Femora once when we played with them @ Drakes. I thought the vocalist was really good. In fact, I htought the whole band were good, so I hope for their sake they're not going to go and get someone to scream all the time, as the melodic vocals were a big part of my enjoyment of them:looking for powerful melodic vocals (would be nice if u can scream also)Hmm, that looks fair enough.Still, I really liked that vocalist...

ANGEL O' DEATH Posted May 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 i know crockers CHUMS are wondering why we asked him to go......fact is how can anyone tell us that we have had no bad reviews about his vocalswhen all they know is what is written on this board. we have had many personal conversations with people who say different, not just vocals but have made many comments about the band as a whole. Shit that people are too scared to write on the board i.e. (the truth).As i have said once already crocker is a good singer, just not what we are looking for in the long run.We do not believe his voice is best suited for our music and at the end of the day thats all that matters, anybody who does not listen to the same sort of music will have a different opinion.Now can we get on with getting a new vocalsit, i'de appreciate it if nothing more was said.thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 yeah we may have not had any "bad" reviews but if you cant play the music you love for yourself then whats the point?and any band in aberdeen will tell you, playing music is a love not a job. so to say yet again there was nothing wrong with crocker but he didnt complete us as a band and thats why we let him go. losing a band member makes or breaks the band and i for one have no intensions of becoming an average obscure band, stoner rock or not!one things for sure the next gig will be a must watch!!!

Dan G Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Wow...didn't expect that!It's kinda weird cos I did think crocker was a good focal point - and like mr lucifer says - was also unexpectedly good!All the best in finding a replacement though.

jcn Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Will I do?Hi, I am a 1st soprano and have just come back from singing at a wedding in Kings college chapel. I am always up for a challenge and would like to diversify into a different kind of music. I would love to hear your songs and see if I would enjoy adding the vocals to them. I can sing very high (3 octave range) and I am sure that I could scream when I needed to, not much call for that sort of thing at weddings :-) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
